ClipDone: Automatic short-form video editing

Creating video content still takes too much work. The best marketing videos usually come from real people speaking to a camera, but manual editing is slow and expensive. It shouldn’t be easier to generate AI videos than to edit real ones. That’s why we built ClipDone. It automatically turns your raw footage into ready-to-post shorts. Just upload your footage and ClipDone edits it together, adds subtitles, b-roll, and animations.

👋 Hey! I’m Moritz, creator of ClipDone. Editing videos is still hard. That isn't surprising because it didn't really change for the last few decades. Learning to edit yourself takes time and will only work at first with few videos. So you need to hire. But that costs a lot of focus and flexibility. You need new people, which needs communication and managing. All the usual scaling up stuff... . Or you go with expensive and slow agencies where you have to send timestamped feedback in Slack. I helped build a marketing agency over the last few years and the editing team almost turned into a second company. I've heard of similar situations from other people. You basically need to build a whole editing agency internally. A lot companies then don't even consider doing videos themselves or offering them to clients because its too much effort. Ideally, you should be able to just drop your recorded footage somewhere and then get out a finished video. So you don't have to think about editing anymore. That's what we're building with ClipDone 1. You upload your footage. 2. ClipDone automatically analyzes and edits the clips, creates fitting animations, subtitles, zooms, ... everything needed for a finished short. 3. Download and publish the video. (Write feedback notes if you want anything changed.) Try it with your own footage at https://clipdone.app.

Congrats with the launch!

ClipDone looks solid, good job! The only thing I can dream of is pay-per-clip pricing. I don't usually need to edit videos every month but I need it ocassionally. So I would be happy to pay 15$ per video instead of having a subscription.
